List of Stereotypes

Stereotypes are generalizations about groups and individual members thereof, based primarily on membership in that group. They may be positive or negative prejudicial, they may be accurate or inaccurate regarding average characteristics of a group, and may be used to justify certain discriminatory behaviors.

Some people consider all stereotypes to be negative because they are unjust to individuals who vary from group characteristics. Stereotypes may be accurate, based on some kernel of truth yet exaggerated, or completely fabricated. Different disciplines give different accounts of how stereotypes develop: Psychologists focus on how experience with groups, patterns of communication about the groups, and intergroup conflict. Sociologists focus on the relations among groups and position of different groups in a social structure. Psychoanalytically-oriented humanists have argued (e.g., Sander Gilman) that stereotypes, by definition, are never accurate representations, but a projection of an individual's fears onto others, regardless of the reality of others.

Although stereotypes are rarely entirely accurate, statistical studies have shown that in some cases stereotypes do represent measurable facts. [source]
